https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/984574/99292974-fa117280-280f-11eb-9135-5db4deaef83c.png
Kurt Gödel's 1931 proof showed that any formal system, including Principia Mathematica, is either incomplete or inconsistent, meaning it cannot prove all true statements or prove a false statement. This discovery, known as Gödel's Incompleteness Theorem, limits the ability of formal systems to capture all mathematical truths and has far-reaching implications for mathematics, logic, and ...

Email obfuscation: What works in 2026?

Here are some of the best techniques for keeping email addresses hidden from spammers—along with the statistics on how likely they are to be broken. These techniques protect an email address written out in plain text (e.g. “[email protected]”). Ideally, you should be using multiple techniques in combination, by splitting the email address into segments, where each segment is protected by a ...
